Expert Reply:
I do have an option for you but I don't recommend using a swing-away adapter with a hitch expander as you would be reducing the trailer hitch's capacity by too much. I'm afraid we don't have any swing-away options for the smaller 1-1/4" trailer hitch but you can still haul your gear inside a cargo basket like the 19x47 Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18110 and if needed, enclose the contents inside a bag like the Curt Cargo Bag for Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier part # C18210.
